Grezsky was sold like that as Peter Pocklington needed the money he brought in in order to keep his house of cards from falling down I believe was the reason. They had had quite a long and nasty strike at his Meat plants out west which was driving him near bankrupt if I remeber correctly. Pocklington was born and raised here in London.  :)

Rrocket, maybe you need to check into some psychics' message boards to see if the "bump" is being felt by others... oh wait, do psychics need message boards??

When I was a kid I working in a paper shop I was asked once when the "Psychic Times" newspaper would be in, I said, "surely you should already know?"

Wasn't the Oiler's owner in the meat packing business?

I broke a lug nut off today while I was changing a flat tire on my Dodge Caravan.  I am now missing one nut.  :)

I'm begging to believe there is something to this - I've been hearing an inordinate amount of Journey "Don't stop believing" on the radio lately. Spooky to say the least  :foil:

Has that something big happened yet?   Maybe it is your subconscience trying to tell you it is time to get married and stop that living in sin stuff.   :D

Hurricane Kyle is headed for the Bay of Fundy. Southern NB is going to get hosed again, 50-100mm rain overnight on Sunday. Not really a "big" event for us.
On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.

 :iagree: True that.

OK I stepped off and bought another Cadillac and its fairly new as well. Its a 2001 Seville STS with all the toys money could dress it with. Has only 66,150 odd miles on it as of to-night and is in extremly good condition as well. Its the Bronze Mist Mettalic colour with the lighter Tan leather interior. Has the 300HP NorthStar engine in it. Back to 3 Caddies again but I will sell one this week.  :) ;D

+1   a LOT less cool

But of course if there is a heaven then he is up there with Lennon, Joplin, Hendrix, Bogart, Sellars, Armstrong, Wayne  and some other icons of our times

John Wayne never died...he was flash frozen so he could come back and kick more ass far into the future.... :foil: :bow2: ;D

Lyrics from Dennis Leary "swerver"

John Wayne's not dead
He's frozen!
And as soon as we find a cure for cancer We're gonna thaw out "The Duke"
And he's gonna be pretty pissed off
You know why?
Have you ever taken a cold shower?
Well, multiply that by 15 million times
That's how pissed off "The Duke"'s gonna be
I'm gonna get "The Duke"
And John Cassavetes
And Lee Marvin
And Sam Peckinpah
And a case of whiskey
And drive down to Texas
And-

How did you break his nut?   Are you a mighty duck with too much torque?

Duck thats usually a sign some grease Monkey pounded them on with a airgun and probably over torqued them as well. He also probably did not put any anti-seize on it as well.  :)

Still not feeling something major has happened...I still have the "feeling". :(

Living in sin will continue until there is a tangible benefit for a man to be married...and thus far.. there is NONE!
